Base64 to Image Converter

This project provides a simple web interface built with Gradio to convert Base64 encoded strings into viewable images. It uses Python with the Pillow library for image processing.

GitHub Repository: https://github.com/PRITHIVSAKTHIUR/Base64-to-Image-Encode

Overview

The application takes a Base64 string as input (either raw or with a data URI scheme like data:image/png;base64,...) and decodes it to display the corresponding image directly in the web interface.

Features

• Simple Web UI: Easy-to-use interface powered by Gradio.
• Data URI Support: Automatically removes the data:image/...;base64, header if present.
• Error Handling: Provides feedback if the Base64 string is invalid or if the data cannot be converted to an image.
• Image Conversion: Ensures the final displayed image is in RGB format using Pillow.
• Example Inputs: Includes clickable examples directly in the UI for easy testing.

Requirements

• Python 3.x
• Gradio
• Pillow (PIL fork)

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone [https://github.com/PRITHIVSAKTHIUR/Base64-to-Image-Encode.git](https://github.com/PRITHIVSAKTHIUR/Base64-to-Image-Encode.git)
   cd Base64-to-Image-Encode

2. Install the required libraries:

   pip install gradio Pillow

   (Note: The base64 and io modules are part of the Python standard library and don't require separate installation.)

Usage

1. Run the Python script: (Assuming you saved the provided code as app.py or similar)

   python app.py

2. Access the Interface: The script will start a local web server and print a URL (usually http://127.0.0.1:7860 or similar). Open this URL in your web browser.

3. Convert Base64:

   • Paste your Base64 encoded string into the input text box.
   • Alternatively, click one of the provided examples below the input box.
   • Click the "Submit" button.
   • The decoded image will appear in the output area. If there's an error, an error message will be displayed instead.

Code Structure

• base64_to_image(b64_string: str): The core function that handles the Base64 decoding and image conversion. It performs error checking for URI format, decoding, and image opening.
• gr.Interface(...): Sets up the Gradio web interface, linking the base64_to_image function to the text input and image output components.
